Continuing...
The two rush through the streets trying to keep the hyperdrive out of sight as envious eyes checked it out. They then approach the adobe that they found Anakin in. She asked, "So Master Jedi, why does this boy matter so much?"
"Jedi business." He quickly dismisses until she stands in the way.
"You do know I'm a person of authority, correct?" She looks at him with an impish grin.
"Your Highness, we have no time. We are in great danger as we speak."
She scoffs, "Oh is it danger that involves thugs hired by angry locals or some thieves looking at this part."
He sighs, "My lady, there are things in the galaxy much worse than what you listed and that's why everything is happening without thought or planning. I know you're used to bureaucracies and committees, but the situation now requires neither. You'll understand later, for now please move."
She looks up standing there a little bit, but as she started to move the door behind her opens and Anakin teases, "The door is this way."
She blushes and huffs at Qui-Gon glaring daggers. She moves to the side and Qui-Gon asks, "Anakin, where is your mother?"
"She's upstairs."
He runs up and he sees she has a nervous glance on her face. She looks over to the man and she answers, "Oh hey. Did you find a way to repair your ship?"
"Yes, thank you, but unfortunately that's not what I'm here to talk about. Your son is in great danger."
She sighs, "I can sense it. I don't know how, but after a nightmare last night, I saw him...all grown up, scars on his face and..." She was interrupted by sobbing until she finishes, "He was kneeled before a hooded figure. Talking about the Dark Side and..."
Qui-Gon nods, "I have all the reason to believe your son is very important to the Jedi Order. I know this maybe happening fast but..."
She interrupts continuing to cry, "Please take him then."
Qui-Gon looks over, hesitating to move on, "I'm coming to sense you had a reason for traveling to the Outer Rim."
She explains after calming down, "I knew the Jedi would try to take him in, especially the way I conceived him. I didn't want that for him, but it seems that...I should have just let the Force guide me."
Suddenly Qui-Gon could feel a disturbance and he reaches for his lightsaber when the two teens run upstairs, "Sir, there's a man with a laser sword trying to break in!"
He asks, "What does he look like?"
"He was wearing all black. That's all we saw before we ran inside!" Padme explains panicking. The Jedi Master looks towards the window only to find this very same figure leap into the room. Qui-Gon unsheathes his weapon to collapse with his own.
Qui-Gon asks, "You mean this one?"
Schmi backs off into the corner of the room while Padme runs downstairs leaving Anakin to watch as the room is filled with the fluorescent colors of red and green. One end being calculated blows in attempt to kill while the other was a barrage of parries. Much furniture was knocked over and sliced as the shrouded figure aggressively pursues, scorching all the room with the confined spaces they were limited to. Schmi attempts to escape only to have her leg severed by the dark figure. He shoves the Jedi towards the wall, knocking him dazed as he clumsily holds his lightsaber clearly fatigued.
The man holds out his grip and the woman starts to levitate by her neck. Anakin screams, "Mom!"
The figure hisses, "You're hiding something besides this Jedi, woman! Speak then you will be spared torture!"
She gargles in response, trying to pull away the invisible force. Qui-Gon attempts flank the man only to have his attack blocked with ease. The figure then dismisses Schmi as he snaps her neck and tosses her body towards Qui-Gon. On the other end, objects started to levitate and fly towards the murderer. His lightsaber was knocked out of his hand followed by a chair flying at the man's face. Qui-Gon also received a bit of flying house items. Most of these objects were focused and hurling towards the shrouded figure.
Qui-Gon realizes the danger and shouts, "Anakin, stop! Anakin, stop right now!"
Finally after a few moments of pressing the invader into the wall, everything collapses to the ground and the boy falls to his knees, essentially blacking out. He seizes this opportunity to carry Anakin's body out while leaving the other man buried in junk. He runs towards the den for Padme to call, "Towards the back. I found a transport we could use! Hurry!"
He runs towards the back to find a large machine with a large cab that was built for three passengers and two engine turbines connected to a cable from this cab. He sees the hyperdrive strapped to the back of the cab when he asks, "You ever thought of how to pilot this machine."
"I didn't have the supervision of a committee." she replies
He smiles back, "Point taken, now wake Anakin up. He might be a bit dazed, but he'll be capable."
She grunts, "Are you seriously trying to kill us?"
He shrugs, "Your choice, die in a crash or..."
Some furniture flies from the windows of Anakin's living quarters into the dunes of the distant sand accompanied by an angry roar.
"Be killed by that thing."
She then slaps the boy, still nothing happens. Out the window leaps the now angry warrior as he brandishes his red lightsaber, the glow of the weapon reflected off his mask. He leaps forward at the Jedi in a downward cut only to be parried, now the fight being more coordinated and less restricted by confined room. While dueling, Qui-Gon finds several pieces of junk tossed at him while he duels with his opponent. Like that, eh? He gathers force in his arm to shove the man backwards, that attempts to force push back but is unable to counter the concentrated force of the Jedi's own shove. The man does not fumble, he back flips to where he lands in a predatory stance to leap back at Qui-Gon.
Meanwhile Padme is getting a grunting Anakin groggy from passing out only a few moments ago.
"You have to wake up! Annie!"
He still grunts. She looks around, "I hope I don't regret this."
He looks up, "Are you an angel?"
She rolls her eyes then leans forward, almost hesitant to do what she was about to do that would have effect on most young male teens without getting mature. She sighs, "I can't."
Then she receives an urgent, "Padme hurry!"
She glares yet again at the Jedi despite his position of desperation and she uses the frustration to grab the teen by the back of his head and force him into a kiss. He shifts from groggy groaning into an expression of shock and awe. He had no idea what to do as he found the lips of a beautiful girl upon his own. She pulls back and the both of them blush.
She explains, "We have to get out of here, using this!"
He looks over at the controls, he attempts to get up towards the pilot's chair only to collapse from standing up.
"Just help me please." He says in a soft tone. She looks over at Qui-Gon then nods as she helps him into his chair.
Back to Qui-Gon's duel, he was starting to grow weary of the conflict and his opponent clearly sees this. He comes to a point of reverting to blasting sand in the warrior's face to where he was to blind to swing accurately, basically and equivalent of busting a piñata. Even this was a double edged sword though as he chokes on the sand in the air. He could not possibly fight any longer then he hears the hum of some engines. That had to be the vehicle Padme prepped the best she could. He blasts more sand up in his attacker's face to create a smoke screen as he runs haphazardly towards the source of the noise.
"Sir, I would suggest holding on tight or putting on a seatbelt."
He takes the boy's advice as the vehicle speeds off in the distance, leaving far behind his living quarters in a matter of a few moments. Once the dust clears from the immediate area, the only person left standing was the shrouded figure. He deactivates his lightsaber and snarls through his metallic mask, "Cowardice...typical among Jedi!"
This was my admittedly rushed Tatooine section. I was going to crucify my brain before I did a Podracing sequence. However, I will build up more for the continuity of the Trilogy. That's my focus. Focusing on Podracing, neigh. Focusing on slavery, neigh. Sebulba, neigh. Aliens, neigh.
So that was my rant. More established chapters will come in, promise :)
